Making the unborn visible

The Iona Institute has launched a new national billboard campaign to promote the right to life of the unborn. The billboards show an image of the unborn baby at 11 weeks with the simple message ‘one of us’.

Speaking on behalf of The Iona Institute, Maria Steen said that neither the Citizens’ Assembly nor the Joint Committee on the Eighth Amendment has made the unborn child properly visible in the repeal debate. “We have launched this campaign because those who want to repeal the pro-life amendment constantly ignore or downplay the fact that abortion always ends the life of the child in the womb.”
